Core area maybe restricted
LISTOWEL - The Town of
Listowel is in for a fight
regarding its "special"
flood plain policy and
town council is issuing as
urgent plea for public
support for that policy:,
The town is opposed to
a portion of the policy
which could place the
downtown core of
Listowel under a
restrictive policy that
prohibits new con-
struction. • .
According to the town
administrator Hartley
Fischer, the ministry Of
natural resources told
that town that they would
not accept their
recommendations and
they will be opposing the
special policy at an OMB
hearing.
Mr. Fischer explained
that the town is not
worried about the
"fringe" area of the
Residency
bylaw passed
in Mitchell
policy but, "We can live
with that - what I'm
talking about - what we
have to get people,
especially the merchants
in the downtown core,
ponCerr,ied. about is the
policy as it affects our
downtown core.
Under the policy a
merchant must have
approval from the town
and the Maitland Valley
Conservation Authority
to renovate his building.
The authority may also
request floodproofing
measures, a policy has
the town has been
following in the past.
"However, under the
policy being put forward.
by the ministry, there
would be absolutely no
new building in the main
core for Listowel. If a
building burned down, for
example, it could be
replaced exactly as it
existed prior to the fire,
but could not be enlarged
in any way; and no new
construction whatever
would be allowed." Mr.
Fischer explained.
"There is no way we
can afford to be placed in
this position and we want -
all the help we can get in
trying to get our policy
through," he added.
"The ministry is op-
posed because whatever
happens to Listowel will\
be setting a precedent for ,
the entire province. No
other ..town has been
allowed this kind of
special policy and I might
add that the MVCA has
really gone to bat for this
town and they still are -
even though it means
they are opposing their
senior organization," Mr.
Fischer explained.
Bob Cox was home on
the weekerid with his
mother, Mrs. Phyllis Cox.
It's good to hear that
Charlotte Norman is
home from hospital.
Remember that the
Goderich Township
dance will be held on
Saturday night at the
White Carnation. Just a
few tickets are still.
available.
Congratulations to
Doug Norman of
Holrnesville on •the
opening of his new store
in Clinton. May we wish
him much success.

MITCHELL - All future
employees of the Town of
Mitchell will have to live
in the town.
Council -put the
residency requirement in
writing when it passed a
motion stating that one of
the . conditions for em-
ployment with the town
will henceforth be that
the employee move to
Mitchell.
The new hiring policy
was apparently prompted
by the resignation of the
town ' clerk Currie -
McVicar. During the 15
years that 'Mr. McVicar
worked for Mitchell, he
maintained his home in •
Watford even though he

Matthew 'chapter twenty-
five as the congregational
. Bible reading, with the
theme of. his message
being, "Well done thou
good and faithful servant
thou hast been faithful
over a few things, I will
make you ruler over
many things, enter thou
into the joy of thy Lord."
He said that Salvation is
through God's grace with
nothing added; but if we
want the Lord to say
"WELL DONE" wheh we
•
stand before' HIM irt,
Heaven, we must each'
live for Him every 44.
Walk with God° even. If
every one we -know is
going the other WO.
Accept Christ as personal
Saviour, then do His will,
ask Him for forgiveness
when -we make mistakes,
and thenbe sure (as the
hymn says) There's
nothing between my soul
andmy Saviour.
